Re: Canon Rebel 2000

Just picked one off the shelf yesterday. It was this one that came to hand. Put in some batteries and off I went. It still works. Pictures came out ok. Then I got to wondering what I paid for it and looked at my spread sheet. Couldn't find it. Must have forgot to record it. Then went to ebay bought ...

Civil War Enfield bullets

I saw a post about wood plugs in the base or Enfield rifle bullets. Then I saw this video. American bullets on the Union side had metal plunger solutions in large part I learn. In the south the base was just hollow with expandable cuts in the outside rim like what I have been used to in firing my re...

A war accoutrement that I saw mentioned today

Apparently women working in shipyards during WWII needed something for protection. I can imagine a hot welding spark? Maybe a dopped wrench from someone working above?

Re: DIARY OF THE GREAT WAR 1914-1918
